The Ruger Security-380 Lite Rack – Model 3839 is designed for shooters looking for a reliable, soft-recoiling .380 ACP pistol that’s easy to operate, comfortable to shoot, and built with Ruger’s proven reliability. Its Lite Rack system uses lightened recoil springs and refined slide geometry, making racking the slide easy and smooth, even for those with reduced hand strength.
The 3.42-inch barrel provides a balance of concealability and control, while the black oxide slide and high-performance glass-filled nylon frame offer a rugged, no-nonsense look and feel. The Secure Action™ fire control system delivers a crisp trigger pull with a short, positive reset.
With a 15+1 round capacity and included manual safety, the Security-380 is well-suited for personal defense, range use, or as a confidence-building pistol for new shooters. The drift-adjustable rear sight and fiber optic front sight provide a clear and fast sight picture, and the Picatinny rail allows for accessory attachment.
